Pitt Cue Co. Smoked Beef Ribs with Bone Marrow Mashed Potatoes and Pickled Red Cabbage. The Best BBQ Dish I had in London.

Barbecue Season is in full swing in countries all over the world. If you are like me, you’re always searching for something exciting and new in your travels. Especially when it comes to Food. Since my interest is Grilling, I always try to find something grilled on restaurant menus wherever I go. Wish every city had a BBQ Tour, where I could link up with a BBQ Chef and explore some of the best local places to eat (and avoid the over-priced tourist traps with mediocre food).

Steak & Co. is a Class Act with a variety of Rib styles. They are said to have some of the Best Mac and Cheese in London.

As it turns out, I usually end up creating culinary tours for myself whenever I visit cities outside of Los Angeles. I utilize a combination of Yelp, Trip Advisor, “Local BBQ Restaurant Reviews” (Google Searches), and good old “Word of Mouth” from Locals. Thanks to Facebook and Google, I am also creating a Friends’ network of Gluten Free and BBQ Foodies and Chefs from all over the U.S., and abroad.

At Ripley’s Museum London, I quiz a friendly Local about where to find the best BBQ.

When I am not doing BBQ, I like to take city tours of the best local Cuisines and do Cooking Classes to learn how to make them. In the past couple of years I have been fortunate to tour exciting food destinations like New Orleans, Paris, Mexico, Miami, Costa Rica and Chicago, among others. Some of these experiences have been subjects in “The Adventures of TasteeBQ”.

Authentic Texas style BBQ is alive and well at Bodean’s BBQ in London. They are popular for house made BBQ Sauces and delicious Burnt Ends.

Recently, I have been hearing from people who are planning travel to London, so I decided to share one of my favorite BBQ cities ever. I was there in the Fall of 2012, following the Olympics. Hopefully, the London BBQ scene hasn’t changed too much in the past year, or so. Please share any updates if you have more recent Pics of BBQ in London.

Tender Chicken and Ribs taste a more baked than BBQ at Adam’s Ribs. But the BBQ Sauce is great with the Fries.

From Adam’s Ribs, you get great views of Theatre Row in the West End.

Of course, throughout my travels there have been “Hits and Misses” when it comes to BBQ restaurants. The Catering part of my company has recently branched out to offer BBQ Tasting Tours in Los Angeles. Open to both L.A. Locals and visitors alike, friends have asked why would I promote the competition? I look at it a different way. As a Caterer, I seldom cook for groups of less than 10, and I have no intention of ever opening a BBQ restaurant in L.A. [Been there , done that with Chicago Pizza.] Plus it is a chance to take my BBQ Classes on the road, meet new people and nosh on some of the Best BBQ in town. The next Tour is coming up in a couple of weeks (details below). In the end, BBQ Tasting Tours is another small step in my company’s mission to Make the World a Better Place to Eat. Hope to see you there. Until next time, Eat and Be Well.

As a fan of International BBQ is was great to have Lunch at Momo Restaurant in London. Their Moroccan style Grilled Chicken was phenomenal, and came with Couscous and all the Trimmings.
